India Witherington has been such a blessing for me. She is an amazing therapist. A good listener and very good at explaining things in detail. She has helped me quite a bit with my DBT based therapy needs. I am usually uncomfortable with most therapists but her approach to everything has gained my trust and appreciation.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

India is fantastic, and always offers insight that may not occur to me otherwise.
My experience with India Witherington was motivational, educational, and very successful. She opened my eyes to different scenarios and situations that I could improve on and live a more positive life. I'm very grateful to have been able to learn and grow with her. Thanks so much.
I'm still getting to know India, we've had two sessions so far. But I feel like the app paired me well, she's great. She understands what my priorities are and is very proactive, and has checked in on me even when I haven't responded. I'm excited to keep working with her
It is still the beginning of my counselling. I have had a few sessions with India, but in such a short time I was able to feel comfortable and start organizing my thoughts. It gives me great comfort to speak to her every time. And she is so accommodating to the time difference and changes. She tries to understand the different cultures first and asks the right questions. I feel so much better already just from a few sessions with her. I highly recommend her for any person that has internal struggles and issues to resolve.
India is extremely professional, knowledgeable, and down to earth. I feel lucky landing her as my therapist. She has had great advice for everything I needed, and checks in on me regularly.
